Electric heater

Been thinking about some sort of (better?) heater for my 90 and came across
this:
http://silenceisdefeat.org/~lgtngstk...er/Heater.html

How will a 240v heater element work off of 12 volts?

Any thoughts?

Richard

Rubbish!! It just won't get noticeably hot .. now a 12V element operated
from 240V would likely go bang :-))

Hi Richard, before worrying about the element you need to get your
navigation system sorted so you can post in the right group. Who says
you can't get lost in a Landie?

leave them alone if the yanks say running a 240v heater on 12v will make it
blow up then it must be true

I was being sarcastic. With such a stupid question. He had to be a Aussie.
